Built in 1875, it was the last tower mill to be built in Sussex. The mill ceased working in 1937 and although it became a grade II* listed building in 1952 it was becoming increasingly dilapidated. However, the Sussex Mills Group and Wealden Council began restoration work in 1995 and the mill began grinding corn again in 2000. It is open to the public from 2-5pm every Sunday between April and September. This view looks west from behind the mill and takes in the Downs above Folkington in the distance.
